About The FYC

Many of the current owners may not know this, but when FYC was created, it was to allow people five seasons to see the fruits of their labor come to life. FYC wasn’t only an acronym for our league, it was a philosophy we all bought into. If you’ve never heard, FYC stands for Five Year Commitment. Every owner purchased a gift card for five seasons and sent the receipt to the commish. Ten “real world years” later, and there are two original owners left (bfhendricks & mgccpro). The spirit of FYC lives on. We still have a solid world with very low turnover and owners whose average tenure is 14.8 seasons. We are also eager and willing to entertain all skill levels in terms of Hardball Dynasty.

Additionally, we have a Facebook page that can be accessed via the icon on the left, which is intended mostly for the purpose of Trade Chatting in real-time, although occasionally some league updates or interesting sports-related articles are also published there.
